QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 12:36 PM) Thanks for the amazing audio. Listen to the crowd in the clips from 1977. The crowds were so much louder in Old Comiskey. And to think we didn't need a prompt on the scoreboard telling us to make some noise.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 12:48 PM) My interview with Billy: http://www.whitesoxinteractive.com/rwas/in...=11&id=1546 Mark Love that interview. Thanks for posting.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 09:32 AM) You guys are all young whipper snappers. I was 8 years old in 1959 when I first started following baseball and the White Sox were my team. My first baseball glove was a Nellie Fox model. I'm a year older. I was a huge Little Louie fan. I worshiped the guy. My first glove was a Luis Aparicio model. My older brother had a Nellie Fox model (his was the better glove LOL). I was absolutely crushed when Aparicio was traded to Baltimore though Dave Nicholson acquired in that trade quickly became my new favorite player. Sounds kinda corny but I think it's cool that we all come come together young and old on Soxtalk to share in our love and enthusiasm for baseball and the White Sox in particular. My picture is me in 1959.

Wow. What a flashback (the good kind). Enjoyed those. Really cool to hear Jack Drees, I liked him.

On the day the Yankees come to town, those old enough to remember who could ever forget those classic Billy Pierce-Whitey Ford match-ups? Rest In Peace #19.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 07:39 PM) Not trying to start anything up here, but remember when everybody except El Rockin and Dick Allen wanted Robin fired? If the team is able to keep this up, he'll be in Chicago for the next 20 years. BTW, the biggest game of the year is going to be the game after we finally lose. Remember this win streak followed a 4-game losing streak. Fair or not, the team has to prove it's not gonna turn around and lose 5 in a row. I admit after supporting him for the longest time I caved in and wanted him fired about a month ago or so. Not so much because I thought he was an awful manager but I just felt enough was enough and something had to be done. Managers are often the scapegoat when a team is consistently bad whether that's fair or not. I'm happier than heck they've righted the ship.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 07:34 PM) Well, at least you're close to the world-renowned Mormon Tabernacle Choir and some beautiful scenery. Actually is a beautiful state. I'm in Washington now amongst normal people.

QUOTE (Hawkfan @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 07:25 PM) I picked a bad year to move to Michigan. This could be an epic run. Go Melk! Sometimes you have to sacrifice yourself. 55 years in the Chicago area and I moved to F***ing Utah in July 2005.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 06:48 PM) Where are all the Flowers haters? Yo! I'm still here. I still hate him.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 05:05 PM) Also, game chat was a big thing then. Also, a lot of people were choosing to watch the game and have their total attention on that. Well, speaking for myself anyway.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 10:06 PM) In the process as we speak I don't think T-Flow21 is taken.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 10:03 PM) That's more like a bad trip. That's what I was implying.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 09:50 PM) This trade sure is a thing. Maybe we get drunk and acquire Reyes Maybe we get stoned and acquire Castro.

Wow. That one's a real surprise.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 09:27 PM) The Cult of Danks That sounds like maybe the worst thing ever.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 08:54 PM) Not to be a downer to Big Ed, but Danks will start a few more. Ugh......I know.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 08:22 PM) Win at least 2 of the next 3 and if the Pirates take the series against the Twins suddenly you have a race. Hell bring up Johnson anyway and banish Danks to the pen. Not to be a downer in a White Sox Winner thread, but I really hope Danks never starts another game for the Chicago White Sox.

In true White Sox fashion that was both frustrating as hell and really really fun too. GO SOX!!!!

Let's not have drama. Nice easy 6 up, 6 down.

That was a little hairy.

I think he got him by an eyelash.

I hate being negative but Danks brings that out in me. Oh well, this is still winnable. Let's shut 'em down and do it!

Ooooooh for a long one.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 06:21 PM) Danks has had some pretty darn good games lately. He has a rough one and now we want im released? Sale had a bad game right after the All-Star break Pfffft. I wanted him released at least a year ago. Nothing has changed. despite a few good games (and I'm stumped how the hell those happened) he is still a godawful pitcher.
